Excuses

I am getting pretty tired of them. From mostly the guys who live in this house. One of who blames his disrespectful attitude on being a teen. I'm thinking yes he is a teenager, but if he knows he's doing it, why can't he stop doing it. I am very thankful for my friend who listened to me, and understood, especially when I am crying. The weekend has had it's ups and downs. Friday night mostly down. But I watched a movie with R. Sat started with a BIG down, that lasted until it was time for the girls and I to leave for a cousin's baby shower. Those next 5 hours were very fun, I really miss being with my family. Came home to being way down again. The girls and I watched a movie together and things stayed up because I went to bed. Sunday morning was the usual one person getting up before the rest of us, but waking me up. When I got out of bed 40 minutes later, I woke up the children, and kept them on track to make sure we'd get to church on time. While the one who woke up first, just took care of himself. He did try to talk to be as I was getting in the shower, I'm not sure what he thought he was going to accomplish by picking that time to talk to me, other than seeing my naked body. He had not talked to me for 24 hours. He tells me he's sorry, for what I want to know. That's about all we've said to one another today except where do you what to go to lunch. Of which we brought home to eat, and he sat like a lump eating, while I tried to hold conversations with the children. I cried though most of church. Message was relationships and are you a fighter or flighter. Based on Luke 15 and the prodigal son. At one point Pastor Ray went off on a side note on wives respect your husband and husbands love your lives, and added if there is discord the husband is the head of the household needs to make the first move. Well that never happens, it's very hard to respect when I do not feel loved and cherished like the bride of Christ loves his church. So after all my tears I had to take my messy contacts out and had wear my glasses to take the girls to their first Snow Queen rehearsal, followed by going to see the movie Fame. I loved it, but it left me with wanting more. S liked it, but she thought it went to fast and R was bored until about senor year and the end of the movie. We talked through some of the scenes, that could happen to them in real life and what to do if this happens to you kinda talk. One more down thing- why was it so freaking hot today! It's the end of September for goodness sakes.
